Dan Mitchell - Amaryllis   This busy image strangely reminds me of
Andrew Wyeth's painting "Snow Hill," a representation of a Maypole
Dance.    The people in the painting were Wyeth's neighbors, who
gleefully anticipated the artist's death.“When I worked," Wyeth said,
"I raised hell with them mentally and emotionally.  They wished I were
dead, so they wouldn’t have to pose anymore.”

Jim Snarski - Afterbath  The washed-out flowers in the background and
the wires under the bird's feet and tail are quite distracting.  They
draw attention away from the interesting ragged unkempt appearance of
this Stellar Jay.

Marilyn Dalrymple - Pitcher and Flowers.   The best part of the image
is the box, which appears to hold a mirror image of the jug, but then
really doesn't.  Sort of an unsolved puzzle.

Bob McCulloch - Sunrise on the Kill van Kull.  Centering the horizon
in the frame tends to make any landscape static.  Nothing much else is
going on here.

Chris Strevens - Go Away   This reminds me of Mark Twains wry example
of a "proof" that a miracle occurred at the base of a tree.  "See?
There's the tree."

Trevor Cunningham - Tower.  Phalllic stone towers always seem to me to
be mixed metaphors.  Life in flesh.  Non-life in stone.
